Abstract

Organic light-emitting diodes with external quantum efficiency of 38.8% are realized using a Pt-based thin-film emitting layer with photoluminescence quantum yield of 96% and transition dipole ratio of 93%. The emitting dipole orientation of the thin films fabricated using Pt complexes is investigated and the structural relationship between X-ray structural analysis and the structures in thin films are discussed based on quantum chemical calculations.
